Invalid replicated folder root path monitor

Microsoft.Windows.DfsReplication.InvalidRootPathMonitor (UnitMonitor)

This monitor checks to see if the local path of any of the replicated folders on the monitored server is invalid or inaccessible.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The DFS Replication service may register this event if it detects that the root path of the specified replicated folder is an invalid local path.

Event: 6404

Anti-events: 4002, 4008, 4010, 4114, 1004, 1104

Causes

The DFS Replication service cannot replicate the specified replicated folder because the configured local path is not a valid, existing, accessible local folder.

Resolutions

Re-configure the replicated folder with a valid and accessible local path using the DFS Management snap-in or the Dfsradmin.exe command-line tool. Ensure that the DFS Replication service has access to the replicated folder’s root path.
